Hello,
First off, I'm aware you don't care, and that Square-Enix doesn't read the forums.
I still would like to at least pretend I'm letting Square-Enix know that gamers exist.
I personally have 100-200$ a month for my gaming budget.
I have 40-60 hours a week to game, despite working a full time job, because I live a clean simple life.
It just means I'm a gamer. I don't do drugs or go party, so all my free time is just gaming.
(I'm saying this because Naoki Yoshida, and Square-Enix seems to think gamers either don't exist or don't have time and money.)
The reason I don't like FF14 is because its just ungodly simple, easy, and bland.
(I curb this by manually tri-boxing the game. I currently don't even use macros, and will try to avoid using them for combat.)
I'm playing it because, well I have 40-60 hours a week to game, and I'm currently doing a Rune Level 1 playthrough on Elden Ring, and I'm almost done with it.
(FF14 is less stressful than Elden Ring and FFXI.)
I did basically everything I want to do in every game I have played and want to play, except FFXI, and FF14.
In FFXI I have to make at least 2-3 more Mythic weapons for my "static," and need at least 6-8 more Malignance armor pieces to keep progressing Odyssey.
I just absolutely hate Nyzul.
So I decided instead of 6 boxing FFXI where I have another 950 hours of Nyzul and paying 88$ a month on that game, I can 3-box FF14, and manually play this on my 3 desktops and have a more relaxing time here. Plus its cheaper, only 38$ a month.
What I do in FF14:
-Treasure maps (Dragonskin/Gazelleskin)
-Levequests
-Eureka
I haven't, and have no plans to buy any expansion after Shadowbringers. Shadowbringers was genuinely terrible in my opinion, so all my accounts will stay at Stormblood content until they make a better expansion with more content than Stormblood.
(I don't play for "story" the last story I did with my "main" was the last 5.3 "MSQ" "Reflections in Crystal" it was such a bad storyline that I quit right then and there, and have not done another quest since.)
I most likely will quit or return to FFXI before they release new content in FF14. Naoki Yoshida seems to want to turn this game from a Visual Novel (it stopped being a RPG once 2.0 released) into a Gacha game. (8.0 sounds like its being "reborn" into a full blown gacha MMO.)
TLDR:
I have 100-200$ a month for my gaming budget, and 40-60 hours a week to game, despite working a full time job, because I'm a gamer. Yes gamers exist Naoki Yoshida.
I dislike Nyzul in FFXI more than I dislike FF14 so I chose to play FF14 because its less stressful and cheaper.
